Track Name: Peakesque
I recount my dreams over breakfast
You're the one who's got left behind
But, you riddle my subconscious mind

What if i were dreaming of you?
Dreams of the very bad kind, right now
right now

Analog-to-digital transfer
to weather market cycles
I feel like i know her but sometimes
my arms bend back

What if i were smiling at you
And running into your arms?
Would you see then, what i see now?

We're out for the late late show
We can make it through
Despite the distance and the time

Why can't we just go to your room?
I wanna know the truth, they say
noone looks as good as you

What if i were smiling at you
And running into your arms?
Would you see then, what i see now?

Out in the streets people make mistakes – Oh a lot
But noone seems to fall apart

Kisses are like water off a duck's back
to your mouth
Every night feels like right now

What if i were smiling at you
And running into your arms?
Would you see then, what i see now?
Track Name: Hypnosis
Somebody take this money from my hands
And run run; disolve into the streets
We don't need compassion anymore
All we need is sleep sleep sleep

On Fire; incinerate the house
we used live in, words oh words
Put back the music in my soul
you stole it all; you stole it all

hypnosis
everywhere
midway sleepless
forever and a day

hypnosis
all-around
fulltime position
it's blood drive by now

come-down kingdom come
wanna talk talk talk me into something young-at-heart
you need sad company for now
we don't have to speak as in "speak up child!"

Frosted, rimy is your heart
you iced iced over a long long time ago
Put back the music in my soul
you stole it all, you stole it all

hypnosis
everywhere
midway sleepless
forever and a day

hypnosis
all-around
fulltime position
it's blood drive by now
Track Name: Memory Lane
Do you remember when we used to be best friends?
Cut all the stupid talk and let it rest
i remember jamming in your daddy's garage
Gosh, we were bad

And then my parents got divorced
and we had to move away
for good

Now i long to see your sleepy head
i long to see you; shake your hair
Bubbles hit the cars the pavements in the park
We can still ride our boards once more

When my parents got divored
I cried forever and a day over you
my friends all came to say goodbye
But your mum locked up your room

I recall the spring you got your cherry popped
by somebody called Phil
I got so angry cause i loved you right away
from the moment on your parents got divorced

that's when you moved next to me
down on memory lane
i can still see your face
down on memory lane

Please take me down
memory lane
down memory lane
Track Name: Whatever Happened / Sandusky, Ohio
Whatever happened in sandusky, ohio?
Whatever happened to hector mann?
Whatever happened in sandusky, ohio?

Stop and go Stop ang go
You create an illusion
Stop and go Stop and go
Stop and go

Stop sitting around
and thinking of something
Stop making a movie
out of it

I thought your idols
bathed in the sun light
You're never gonna change
will you?

Stop and go Stop ang go
You create an illusion
Stop and go Stop and go
Stop and go

Whatever happened in sandusky, ohio?
Whatever happened to hector mann?
Whatever happened in sandusky, ohio?

Stop and go Stop ang go
You're an illusion
Stop and go
Stop and go

Stop fooling around
Stop fooling yourself
Pretending you're somebody else

I thought your children
were made from sunshine
They would never turn against you
Would they?!

Stop and go Stop ang go
You create an illusion
Stop and go Stop and go
Stop and go

Whatever happened in sandusky, ohio?
Whatever happened to hector mann?
Whatever happened in sandusky, ohio?
Track Name: Barracuda
I get so tired just by watching you
The way you pop your soda pop
Your red polka dots

And everyone i know
craves for your affection
Everybody sees
I'm just too affective

And so we ride
Day by Day
For you

Barracuda
Spit out the gum
and give me a kiss, kiss, kiss
Barracuda
Chew up my tongue
Just a little less, a little less

I get stoned so i can shut off my fuzzy visions
It's the way your hair falls down
The way you force tension

and i dont wanna want your heart
All i want is drink up all your blood
Everybody feels
You're badly addictive

And so we ride
Day by Day
For you

Barracuda
Spit out the gum
and give me a kiss, kiss, kiss
Barracuda
Chew up my tongue
Just a little less, a little less
Track Name: Turn Off The Lights (and sing me to sleep)
Turn of the lights and sing me to sleep for now
Too much
You've got way too much of it all
life's is but a game
game's over if you lose
your life; Time is running out, boy
It's 1991; See the tide go round and round
That’s so 1991

Just in the nick of time
I got a call
I have to go

turn of the lights and sing me to sleep for now
God knows
God only knows why the sun still shines
I'm not saying that I'm sure that there is a god
But Im sure that there's quantum mechanics
it's 1999; And i see the tide go round and round
I’m so 1999

Just in the nick of time
I got a call
I have to go

Talking is overrated
It's time to hum a melody
Talking is so out of fashion
it's time to hum a melody
Track Name: Easy
The sun is shining down on us
And you beam with pride
You Gotta let me know
Oh, i gotta go

It's raining like hell on your house
And we both beam with joy
You gotta let me know
Oh, i gotta know

Oh, Easy
She's the one
She's the one
Oh, Easy
Sha la la la
Let me come home

Let me taste your mouth
You smell soo good
You gotta let me go
Before i gotta go

We've watched c-beams glitter in the dark
near Tannhauser Gate
All these moments lost in time
forever mine

Oh, Easy
She's the one
She's the one
Oh, Easy
Sha la la la
Let me come home
